The Art of Science

Call for Images

All current Society members attending the 2011 Annual Meeting are invited to submit entries to the first Biophysical Society image contest, The Art of Science. Aptly named, the contest aims to showcase the artistic side of scientific imaging. Images submitted for competition may be obtained using any imaging technique, and must have a connection to biophysical research. Judging will be based on scientific significance, originality, and artistic and/or visual impact of the images. The finalists’ posters will hang in the exhibit hall at the Annual Meeting for all to see, and attendees will vote on their favorite images. The three images with the most votes win! The image submission site opens December 1. The contest is limited to the first 100 entries. This event is sponsored by Photometrics. Visit www.biophysics.org/2011meeting for details.

The Biophysical Society was founded in 1958 to encourage development and dissemination of knowledge in biophysics. It does so through its many programs, including its meetings, publications, and committee outreach activities.
